I want to know how to determine, or calculate ratings for leagues. I was told it was on the PDGA site but i looked and searched and found nothing. I have no idea how it works i just know people want to know their ratings so they know when to move up a division in league or not. I know it has to do with the SSA but not much more than that and i tried reading about it but most of the people who explained it made it seem very complicated and i couldn't grasp it.

Find a tournament played on the same course with the same layout with reasonable weather conditions. Find the score that got the closest to 1000 rating, call that the SSA. Look at how many points difference each stroke makes (somewhere in the 5-12 range). Multiply the number of strokes above/below the estimated SSA by that number of points per stroke and subtract/add it to 1000 to get a rough estimate of a rating for a particular round.

Sanction the league with the PDGA. $25 for every 10 weeks plus $0.50 a player.

There used to be a "league" spreadsheet for calculating estimated ratings available for download from the PDGA. Pretty sure that disappeared when they started sanctioning leagues though, if not long before (been a long time since I went looking for it).

i found that on google but when i clicked on it, it was gone.

Thank you mashnut im going to start with that and then most likely try to get it sanctioned.
